Extended Cab Back Door Handle

Has anyone else had a problem with the door latch for the back door of there extended cab? When I go to open it form the outside the handle moves, but its like it is out of adjustment because the door wont open until the third or fourth "grab". Dose anyone know how to adjust this or at least get the door panel off so I can look at it. Thanks.

If you pull on the door when you do this, will it open?

The latches on the rear door are NOT adjustable. I had to open up the holes on the bottom latches and get regular bolts with washers to make it adjustable. I had to move the door inward to get rid of the bad rattle that these Supercab doors are prone to, and at the same time, made it almost impossible to open the door without pulling on it at the same time.

I just live with it because it would be worse to adjust it to open correctly and get the rattle back

On my 04 I took a dead blow mallet and just bent the latch a little so it closes tighter. Problem solved.
